Pssst, hey, do you remember floppy discs? Why did we call them floppy discs, when they were so small, hard, and not floppy? Why were the larger, floppier discs called hard discs? We may never know the answers to these questions, unless we look them up on some kind of easily searchable Internet database. What we can know, today, right now, is that these musical floppy discs are pretty dang amazing!

YouTube user Gigawipf gives new life to the obsolete floppy disc by transforming their buzzes and hums into music. Check out this odd intersection of music and tech, and see if you can name that tune!

It might not be the next big hit on the radio, but it’s still pretty amazing what you can use to make music.

What’s the weirdest instrument you’ve ever seen? Let us know in the comments!
